ENJOY YOURSELF (1989)

As Kylie came to realise the success of her first album, a follow-up was already in the writing stages. The sound was a slightly more mature sound than the debut and made sense as Kylie began life in her 20s. There are some weak points on the tracklisting but overall it was a step in the right direction in terms of a second album. The album's closing and title track summarises the era perfectly in its sound and lyrical quality, a cute bop that was a more mature, cheesy and non-cheesy all at the same time. One of the strongest tracks being I'm Over Dreaming (Over You), the song was remixed for release on the following album's lead single, featured the title line in the Everything Taboo Medleys of Showgirl/Homecoming, USA2009 and it's such a fan favourite that it earnt itself a spot in the Anti Tour setlist. Overall an adorable album and a praised follow-up which remains a strong favourite out of the 4 PWL albums.

Especially For You (the tolerable original mix) (7/10)

This duet between a lovey-dovey Charlene and Scott Kylie and Jason, is a cute reflection of their relationship. While the released track sometimes gets a little tedious, the Original Mix, which erases the 'oooooh'-ing at the start, and plays at a higher key, is the one I prefer to listen to hands down. It has more synth parts here and there and less guitar. The song itself is decent, has a unique entry to chorus, and the songwriting is super cute. You can hear that they really are meaning what they are singing and have no shame about it.

We Know The Meaning Of Love (9/10)

This track serving as a b-side in some regions to Tears On My Pillow, is basically Enjoy Yourself's alter ego, even utilising the same dings and cowbell. A much more mature sound overall than the rest of the album, this song could have easily been placed on Rhythm Of Love. I quite enjoy this song as Kylie shows off her ultimate note-holding skills as she cries out 'love' and 'enough'. Overall a stunning little track that definitely should have had a place on the main album, this is not B-side material at all.

Just Wanna Love You (8/10)

There's something about this track I really like, although reminiscent of the sound of the first album, its basic lyrical structure fits the track fine and doesn't bother me. The strong and high synth instrumentation is cute. The track served as a B-side for Hand On Your Heart and while that's a fitting place for it, it's a gorgeous little track anyway.

Going to do Rhythm of Love and Let's Get To It tomorrow as it's late and I need to sleep. Goodnight FOTP
